I looked at this person, the person I had known for so long in hope of just one glimpse of tranquillity and everything would fall into place. I stared at those eyes in depth but saw nothing. I tried hard, blinked several times, but to no avail. My heart began to palpitate. I trembled and couldn't deduce if something had emptied me inside, creating a void or was this just going on in my head. I failed to discern this person standing before me. I had no answer. So, I just turned away and walked in search of a place where I could subdue the demons that noshed on me every time I lose the battle between my thoughts. It seemed afar, I started to run. The vehemence exceeded my fortitude. It left me exhausted, I collapsed and struggled for breath. Everything was crashing all at once and every effort turned out to be futile. Impuissance took its toll on me and I stayed there morosely contemplating and waiting for the approaching end to wreck havoc my existence once again..By: Aashi ThakurArtwork: Ankica Vuletin

.Im missing you like crazy. All the late night talks and memories. When will this pain end? When will I feel normal again? Do you miss me like I miss you? Or am I just too dumb to realise the painful truth?All these questions are running through my mind as often as you do..If only I could turn back time,I would've taken back everything I have said. I know I still need you even more than you need me. I was wrong but my ego blinded me. I am in need of love but the only thing that conquered me was hate..I wanted to say that I'm sorry. I'm sorry for shattering your heart into pieces. But I know there'll be someone who will stitch it back together again and that will never be me. But if she is your happiness, then I'm happy for you....------------------------~ holidays ending soon 😭 on a side note, this poem has nothing to do with my current feelings okay.
